As the year draws to a close, our thoughts turn to the comfort and joy of the holiday season. This year, our theme at Linen Society has been Celebrate Home — an idea that feels more meaningful than ever during this special time of year.
Home is more than a place; it is a reflection of ourselves, our values, and the connections that bring us happiness. It’s where we gather with loved ones, where traditions are born, and where we find solace amid life’s challenges. Celebrate Home is about honoring these spaces we create for ourselves, embracing their unique beauty and the sense of belonging they provide.
The Joy of Togetherness
This holiday season, I’ve been inspired by the festive spirit all around us. In San Francisco, the Union Square Christmas tree stands tall and radiant, a beacon of hope and celebration for all who pass by. The sparkle of the lights and the energy of the city remind us of the shared joy that makes this time of year so magical.
Closer to home, my holiday preparations reflect the spirit of Celebrate Home in personal ways. Whether it’s setting a table with cherished linens, arranging fresh greenery, or decorating with ornaments collected over the years, these small acts transform a house into a haven. Each detail tells a story of tradition, care, and love.
Here are a few glimpses from my own home this season...

Looking Ahead to 2025
As we approach a new year, it’s natural to reflect on the past while looking forward with hope and intention. Despite the challenges we all face, there is so much to be grateful for and so much to anticipate. Celebrate Home reminds us to focus on what truly matters: the love of family and friends, the sanctuary of our personal spaces, and the joy of coming together to create memories that last a lifetime.
This is the true meaning of the holidays and the heart of Christmas. It’s not about perfection or extravagance but about the good feelings that arise from being surrounded by the people and things we hold dear. It’s a season of gratitude, renewal, and connection.
Wishing You Peace and Joy
From all of us at Linen Society, we wish you a beautiful holiday season and a hopeful start to 2025. May your home be filled with warmth, your gatherings with laughter, and your heart with the peace of the season. Let’s continue to cherish and celebrate the spaces we call home, today and every day.
Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
